Major Spoiler
I just watched this on TMC and am puzzled by the last scene. Was that Charles Bickford who owns the car? If so, I get it all, but was not positive that was him.
I'm back to answer my own question....found a really good review at http://pre-code.com/panama-flo-1932-review-helen-twelvetrees-robert-armstrong-charles-bickford/
I appreciate TMC so much. I don't know where I'd find (or even become aware) of fascinating little gems like this one.
